What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 27 and 33?

Answer

LCM of 27 and 33 is
297

First common multiples: 297, 594, 891, …

297 is divisible by both: 297 ÷ 27 = 11, 297 ÷ 33 = 9 — and 11 and 9 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/27 by 11 and of y/33 by 9.
